I also have this problem. 7.10 Feisty i386 ---- OK 8.04 Hardy i386 ---- sound very quiet (upgrade last week) 8.10 Intrepid i386 -- sound very quiet (alpha 3)
I have reverted to Feisty for now. Tried all "model" options to snd-hda-intel module. Tried rebuilding and reinstalling ALSA (module-assistant). All channels unmuted (alsamixer). All channels at 100%. Using ALSA throughout (pulseaudio not working at all). I have to turn up my amplifier/speakers) /way/ too high to hear decent sound. However - in Intrepid a3 (at least), this appears to be mainly a problem with audacious (1.5.1-2ubuntu2). Rhythmbox, VLC and xine all seem OK (although not perfect - volume controls still at max).
